Abstract

Building coastal resilience in the context of rapidly increasing challenges of disturbance factors, e.g., extreme events, human impacts, and sea level rise, is becoming a necessity for coastal communities including policy makers, businesses, and researchers. In this paper, the author shows a design methodology of strengthening social capital for entrepreneurship in building coastal resilience. The methodology is grounded in the theories of social capital and community resilience, docility and entrepreneurship, distributed cognition, and input-process-output model of strategic entrepreneurship. The design is put into action to study the experiences of Louisiana in building coastal resilience responding to environmental disturbances such as Katrina, Deepwater Horizon, and Covid-19. In particular, we study how technological platforms are developed to help scale up entrepreneurship for wetland conservation.
